High impact information on NXN

  • Redox-dependent activation of the Wnt-beta-catenin pathway occurs independently of extracellular Wnts and is impaired by RNAi of NRX . In addition, association between Dvl and NRX is inhibited by H(2)O(2) treatment [1].
  • NRX is composed of three TRX-like modules arranged as direct repeats of the classic TRX domain [2].
  • The nucleoredoxin transcripts are expressed in all adult tissues examined, but restricted to the nervous system and the limb buds in Day 10.5-11.5 embryos [3].
